West Virginia Exhibition

The Crew has apparently filled an open weekend between its season and home openers with an
exhibition against West Virginia University's men's team.

According
to this release on the WVU website, the Mountaineers will visit Crew Stadium on March 17 to
face the Crew. A spokesperson from the Crew could not confirm the news but said an update was
likely later today.

The Crew will open the season March 10 at Colorado before hosting Montreal on March 24. Last
season, the Mountaineers defeated a reserve team from the New York Red Bulls 1-0 in a similar
match.

The team is training in Columbus before departing for Charleston, S.C., on Thursday to take part
in the Carolina Challenge Cup that will last from Feb. 25-March 3. The team will face two Major
League Soccer teams in Chicago and D.C. United as well as the host Charleston Battery from the
USL.

I will have more after today's training session, which is scheduled to start at 11:30 a.m.
